Sarepta and its surroundings

The Volga Germans are amazing people who came to the territory of the Russian Empire in the middle of the XVIII century with the permission of Empress Catherine II. Many amazing settlements were founded along the Volga by these missionaries, doctors and educators. But one of the most striking is Sarepta, a real pearl of the Volga, a piece of Europe on the territory of the Tsaritsyn district of the Saratov province. If it were not for the Germans, the world would not soon know the secrets of mustard and mustard oil. Today Sarepta is a whole quarter on the territory of Volgograd, where you can buy unique handmade souvenirs.
